I have mixed feelings about the use of AI, particularly as someone living in a capitalist society.

While I didn't create this economic system, I must navigate within it, just like everyone else.

When it comes to AI, I acknowledge the valid concerns about its exploitation of artists' work.

I do also recognize that all art has historically built upon previous creations.

While I'm uncomfortable with many of the ways how AI has been developed and deployed, I recognize it as another tool in our digital workspace - similar to spell-checkers, grammar tools, and search engines.

All of those tools save us time, help us polish our work, and bring us resources.

We still have agency over how we use such tools.

Rather than simply accepting or rejecting AI wholesale, I believe in understanding both its benefits and drawbacks.

We live in a complex world where these tools exist, and while I may not fully endorse the system that created them, I believe in empowering ourselves through education about AI’s responsible uses and potential misuses.

Like any other writing tool, once you know what it is and what it's good for, then you can decide if you want to bring it into your writing toolkit it or not.

This AI Writing Summit 2.0 is one of those opportunities. You're invited to check it out.

If you do want to investigate for yourself, then start with the blueprint.
